Before Use  Install the balance in an environment where the temperature and humidity are not excessive. The best operating temperature is about 20°C / 68°F at about 50% relative humidity. ...

  • Page 11: During Use

    With the FZ-iWP/ FX- iWP series  The meaning of IP-65 is "No ingress of dust. Projected against water jets". If a powerful water jet is used or the balance is immersed in water, it may cause a damage that is due to ingress of water. ...

  • Page 12: After Use

     With all models of FZ-i/FZ-iWP/FZ-GD series and the 120/200/300 of the FX- i/FX- i WP/FX-GD series (including 500 for the FX- i series), a breeze break is provided as a standard accessory. Since an anti-static treatment has been applied to the breeze break components, there are cases where they may be charged with static electricity for a while after they are unpacked or when the humidity is low.

(The decimal point position balance displays depends on the balance model.) Container 2 Place a sample on the pan or in the container.

  • Page 18: Fz-Gd / Fx-Gd Series Balances

    6.2. FZ-GD / FX-GD Series Balances The default setting of the unit of weight for the FZ-GD / FX-GD series balances is grams (g). To use other units, refer to “5-2 Storing Units” on to store the units. 6.3. Basic Operation (FZ-GD / FX-GD Series Balances) 1 Place a container on the weighing pan, if necessary.
  • Page 19 With the zero point setting, tare and weighing range About the operation at when power is turned on The balance will determine the reference zero point when the ON:OFF key is pressed to enter the weighing mode. Depending on the load condition at that time, it will automatically judge whether to perform zero or tare operation.

  • Page 20: Counting Mode (Pcs)

    6.4. Counting Mode (PCS) This is the mode to determine the number of objects in a sample based on the standard sample unit mass. The unit mass means the mass of one piece of the sample. The smaller the variables in each sample unit mass are, the more accurate the counting will be.
  • Page 21 Notes If the balance judges that the mass of the samples is too light and is not adequate to be used as the unit mass, it displays lo . In that case, store the mass by some quantity. For example, when the model with the minimum weighing value of 0.01 g is used and 10 pieces of samples weigh 0.05 g.

  • Page 22: Percent Mode (%)
